I had my linkage dipped and my platter lost all my pin joints for 3 linkage set ups. Its the pin that holds it together. I have the clips.
It is part part number 92043-024

If anybody has the linkage or parts please let me know.
At this point I don't care what it costs.

Thanks

I can make those pins if I have dimensions. I'll use stainless steel.

Are the pins the same as ones used on '73 and '74 H1's?

They are a smaller pin.

I take it you are attempting to go completely stock, as in resto. If so, disregard below info.

On my street hot rod H2, I used Heim joints and button head Allen bolts/lock nuts, instead of the stock links, and pins.

Another alternative would be to use what is called a "tube nut" and screw setup. Our head bolts are actually a tube type nut, and not a bolt at all. Most good hardware stores, and places like McMaster-Carr have tube nuts available in all sorts of OD's, lengths, and head designs. I have used button head Allen tube nuts, cut to the correct length, not a hard operation, and button head Allen screws to make those pins.

Just a couple of alternatives to consider if yo are not doing a stock, or full stock restoration deal.

Yes I need to go stock.

Fair enough for restoration, lotsa work, but very rewarding.

Kawasaki wasn't the only manufacturer to use those clevis pins and circlips. Online parts diagrams should help find some, might not be stock 'mother Kawi", but, same as well.
